Save a Plant, Rock a Mink Coat

vintage mink coatMamma Earth, your K knows cotton and linen and hemp have endured centuries of being plucked from being warm and cozy sun-soaked fields, of being tormented and twisted into gorgeous garments for others’ pure pleasure and profit.

So I’ll save a plant on your big day, and rock instead this vintage ’60s minky mink.

Tailored tight to highlight my hot hourglass, it’s a classically luxe coat in espresso black that’s really a figurative green –

Vintage mink is how girls named Kristopher do recycling.

    Earth Day is to use more Earthy natural products, like using vinegar instead of bleach, not wearing mink. But that is a darling coat. Almost makes me want to buy fur.

    I haven’t bought any, I am still undecided about it, so I don’t want to buy something and end up deciding against it.

    Oh darlings, here’s a secret. You can have your fur and pay your rent too:
    First off, there is fur rental. Then, if you find that you love it and want one for your very own, then go for a used fur coat.
